  1. Spatial autocorrelation in the residuals (Fig. 1) was modelled using a spherical function. The estimated parameters (Estimate) are in units of logit. See also supplementary results (a and b) and Supplementary Figure 1 for the measurement of biotic and abiotic gradients. P-values in bold are for P-value < 0.05
